I just upgraded my ubuntu system to Hardy Heron, which has emacs 23 as
the default emacs, instead of emacs 22.

I had been using the TeX input method for occasional non-ascii
characters, such as é or ü.

This no longer works for me, because the default seems to be that
after you've typed a backslash, it goes on reading several characters,
and I always end up with something in Chinese or Japanese when I've
tried to type an é.

I don't read, and certainly don't type, Chinese. How do I tell the
TeX input method:

To stop accepting input when the character I want appears in the
mini-buffer?

or:

That in general I'm going to be using two-character sequences for
Latin alphabets, and not typing Chinese?
